I am searching for the residence of..
 Lillias Paterson who was b 24 APR 1879 Dunbartonshire, St Jas, and Died 26 dec 1943 Luton Bedfordshire, England,

where did she live between 1902 (living at Hillholme,with her dad when he died, he is buried with Ann at St Mary's Church Shephall, Stevenage, Hertfordshire. ) and 1927 when she reappeared at her brother, Sam's Newbury Farm Hertfordshire? That's 25 years and she remained a spinster.  Did she ever have a child which has never been mentioned? Is there some way to search for that information.  Thanks in advance.

William Mooney 1854–1939 who married Margaret McGahan on May 24, 1880. They had 16 children in 21 years. He died in 1939 in Pukekohe, Auckland, at the age of 85.

I am seeking further information about Th Mooney family and where exactly he came from.  His' son's service records place him as being from Ireland although this William had recored on their marriage certificate that he was born in Drury NZ.  This doesn't feel right.... can anyone help please.  :-)

Hello,

I'm trying to find which ship John Paterson came to NZ on.  B.October 3, 1874, in Old Kilpatrick, Dunbartonshire, his father, Robert, was 47 and his mother, Ann (nee Wallace), was 36. He married Margaret McDonald on November 30, 1911, in Waverley, Taranaki. They had three children during their marriage. He died on August 6, 1959, in New Plymouth, Taranaki, at the age of 84, and was buried there.
So he lived in Waverley, and moved to Eltham.  I am unable to find which ship he travelled on and when.   He was in England in 1902 and was in Eltham 1908 but what happened in between I'm unsure of.  Could any one help please?   TIA
His cousins and possibly his nephew had moved to America and Canada. maybe he travelled there first? I wondered if he me a McDonald travelling and that could be what brought him to go to Waverley and meet Margaret?  There is this... did he travel to New York age 30. did he met Alex McDonald on the ship (name next to his on list) and is that McDonald from Waverley?  http://search.findmypast.com/record?id=tna%2fbt27%2f0395%2f00%2f0074%2fp%2f0001f&parentid=tna%2fbt27%2f0395000074%2f00024&highlights=%22%22
but my inexperience at this research means i'm not sure how to find out for sure.

We are looking for family linked to Peter Johan Schrieber (Schriber) who married Mary Schiker.
They lived in Steinhausen, so could be Germany or Switzerland.

Their son Johan lived in New Zealand and we have a whole family line here.

Any direction or links or family researching these people we would love to hear.

Wanting to know, parents, residence, occupation, siblings,

Thank you in advance

« on: Monday 29 June 15 09:00 BST (UK)  »
Could anyone help please.  I wonder where John Paterson went from this address in the 1901 census.  He showed up here in New Zealand in 1908 or earlier. 
They are of Scottish descent.
they appear to have been at Shephall, Hertfordshire, England. in the 1891 census when John was aged 17.

(that is if I have the correct Paterson!)

Robert and Ann (Wallace) Paterson
and children;
Jane Paterson 11 Apr 1865
Robert Paterson 27 Jan 1867 (not shown on census in England)
Samuel Paterson c1869 (turned up at Newbury Manor Silsoe)
James Paterson c 1872
John Paterson DOB 03 Oct 1874 (our family link as John aka Jack Paterson moved to New Zealand)
Lillias Paterson c1880 . Died Dec 1943 Luxton, Bedfordshire


Could this one of the properties they lived in when farming.  It seems they always sent a photo over here to John when they moved.
